FOR adults, the festive season is one of the few times you get to kick back and relax while eating your weight in seasonal goodies.

But for children, Christmas is a magical time that comes only once a year – and they want to make sure they savour every moment.

So naturally, this year Samantha Leigh Massey's 8-year-old daughter Scarlett has planned out every moment of the family's Christmas Eve – and it's nothing short of adorable.

Sharing her daughter's detailed plans on Facebook, Samantha wrote: "Christmas Eve itinerary from the point of view of an 8 year old girl."

After getting up, brushing her teeth and "maybe getting dressed", Scarlett intends on spending an unspecified amount of time "getting festive" – which we can only imagine means watching Elf on repeat.

What's more, the little girl hasn't forgotten the true meaning of Christmas and plans on holding a "one minute silence to remember Jesus" before she has dinner, watches a film, brushes her teeth again and wakes up in the night to see if Father Christmas is real.

The mum added: "My favourites are 4 [getting dressed -maybe not], 7 [get festive] & 8 [one minute of silence to remember Jesus], she doesn’t stand a chance of 13 [wake up at night to see if Santa is real], she can literally stay asleep while falling out of bed!"

Needless to say, other Facebook users were equally as obsessed with Scarlett's note.

One replied: "I'm loving how hygiene conscious she is about her teeth!"

Another added: "I love number 8 but I also love how she's not forgotten to factor in food!!!"

Meanwhile, a third gushed: "She's my kind of girl!"
